Eight Bites — a glimpse into how women often see themselves. The undeserved shame that they carry, despite the life that they bring. I appreciated this story.

Especially Heinous -- I got lost here. Whatever this was, was beyond my realm of comprehension. Bits and pieces maybe, but certainly not the full picture.

Mothers -- a waterfall of generational curses? Domestic abuse is often portrayed with men as the aggressors, but women can be angry too. The children of abusive relationships learn by example, and the cycle continues.

Inventory -- I am not quite sure how to digest this one. There is a pandemic. A woman is trying to find comfort in others, despite contact being the cause and spread of the pandemic. She makes lists of all of her accomplishments in life. Maybe the irony is in the things that we do for our own pleasure, perhaps even selfishness, despite knowing the consequences.

The Husband Stitch -- so many parallels here. Men take and take and take. A woman has so few things that she can save for herself only, and after giving and giving and giving, the man takes those things from her too.

More Rhys already pls

Dorian Gray is an insufferable character. The flopping and flinging onto the sofa, the whining, the obsessiveness of his own portrait... sigh. He reads like a petulant schoolboy.

Just finished chapter one and I think I am hooked. I hope I’m not jinxing it.

Meg and Birdie’s characters are so funny and full of personality - I love them!!

Jude letting life treat him worse than a stray dog because he thinks that is what he deserves is unspeakably sad.

Caleb f*ing sucks.

I’ve made it to part 2, the postman.

Ugh my heart
